Don't Online Date a Brooding Weirdo

Bookworm Xu Song suddenly caught on to the latest trend and, at a friend's suggestion, tried online dating. His online boyfriend lived in the capital. He was a little controlling, sulking if Xu Song didn't reply for an hour, and his obsession with him was more than a little abnormal. As someone used to being invisible, Xu Song enjoyed all the attention and could even overlook his boyfriend's unhealthy tendencies. He didn't believe in love built on the flimsy thread of an internet connection. He just liked how he could get emotional support from the other end without having to give anything in return. So when his friend advised him to stop seeing his boyfriend, he didn't think much of it. But before long, his online boyfriend began planning his college entrance exam applications and repeatedly asking for his home address. Faced with his boyfriend's burning gaze, Xu Song finally began to sense that something was wrong. Too honest to break up with him outright, Xu Song decided to give him the cold shoulder first, then end things. He'd started online dating just for fun. Meeting in person would be a problem. On the day the college entrance exams ended, Xu Song walked out of school clutching his pencil case and spotted his online boyfriend among the parents gathered outside the cordon. He should have been busy with final exams. The other guy held a vibrant bouquet of roses. His dark eyes stared straight at Xu Song, and his lips curved as he silently mouthed: “Song Song, I found you.” A guarded, lonely bottom who can't say no × a hypocritical, dark-minded, possessive rich second-generation top They both get what they want. Content warnings 1. One-on-one romance, both virgins. The bottom is insecure and pitiful (emphasis on this); the top is seriously obsessive and creepy. 2. Neither comes from a perfect family. There is a one-sided plotline where their families regret how they treated them. 3. Same-sex marriage exists in this fictional setting. No real-life inspirations, and no character self-inserts. 4. A fluffy, lighthearted story with imperfect writing. My next upcoming novel is "Don't Bully Him, He Can't Hear You" Ruan Er's ears were accidentally damaged when he was little, leaving him with very poor hearing. The doctor recommended hearing aids, but he couldn't afford them, so he had to learn to live with faint sounds. When people cursed at him, he couldn't hear. When people laughed at him, he couldn't hear. He grew up in an almost silent world and learned to read sign language, expressions, and lips. Although life was bumpy, Ruan Er made it to high school. When he chose his classes and was assigned to a new class in his second year, he met a kind and responsible class monitor. The other boy volunteered to switch seats and sit next to him when everyone else shunned him. He helped him study, learned sign language for him, stood up for him, and even... treated him as a friend. Pei Xun. Ruan Er's first friend in all those years. What he didn't know was that Pei Xun called him all sorts of nicknames in a clear voice while tutoring him. He also didn't know Pei Xun had long since decided he belonged to him. By the time Ruan Er found out, there was no escaping... A dazed, hearing-impaired bottom × a two-faced, deep and calculating top The title and synopsis may change, but the general direction will stay the same. 1. One-on-one romance, both virgins. 2. A pitiful bottom and a top with a fatherly streak. Theme: Let love change everything
